Refrigerant Buy-Back Programs

Perfect Cycle actively purchases phased-out commercial CFC and HCFC refrigerants. Should your organization hold inventories of contaminated or virgin surplus refrigerants, we would be pleased to provide a highly competitive offer to purchase your gases in their current condition. Even highly contaminated or mixed refrigerant blends may carry residual economic value depending on the composition and volume available.

To streamline logistics for our commercial accounts, freight transfer arrangements are included directly in the purchase structure in most cases. In addition, empty DOT-approved recovery cylinders can be dispatched to your project site at no additional charge.

Standard Gases Purchased

  • R-11 Virgin / Used
  • R-12 Virgin / Used
  • R-22 Virgin / Used
  • R-113 Virgin / Used
  • R-114 Virgin / Used
  • R-134a Virgin / Used
  • R-225 Virgin / Used
  • R-500 Virgin / Used
  • R-502 Virgin / Used

Blends & Alternatives Purchased

  • R-410a Bulk Batches
  • R-404a Bulk Batches
  • R-407c Bulk Batches

Commercial 400-series blends maintain economic value based strictly on current compound ratios. To retain proper balance, field charging and recovery procedures must be handled carefully. Blends drifting more than 2% out from their original specification are classified as "out of phase" and may represent a reclamation liability depending on active market conditions.

Common Mixed Gas Profiles Accepted

  • • R-22 mixed with R-134a / R-410a
  • • R-11 mixed with R-123
  • • R-123 mixed with R-11
  • • R-12 mixed with R-22 / R-134a

Turnkey Commercial Field Recovery Services

Our complete on-site recovery division handles the necessary heavy-duty technical equipment and certified personnel to safely execute complex gas transfers for any size system. Perfect Cycle field technicians are fully certified and maintain deep field experience operating on high-capacity low-pressure and high-pressure industrial centrifugal chiller platforms.

While larger engineering assignments are managed nationally, standard field service calls are focused within our five-state regional territory (Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, and New Mexico). Project estimates are based on target refrigerant type, travel distance, mechanical accessibility of the chiller package, and available configuration of structural site power. In most instances, our team can provide a firm operational estimate over the phone.

Following an on-site recovery execution, the material is routed based on your choice of three paths:

Contractual Guardrail: Perfect Cycle focuses exclusively on high-volume extraction, recovery, and processing logistics; active system optimization and component re-charging must be performed by your chosen mechanical contractor. Field services include up to 10 days of complimentary service cylinder use; extended timelines are billed on a standard weekly rental tier. Independent laboratory testing can be drawn dynamically on-site if building owners request proof of chemical contamination profiles.

Industrial Field Equipment Rentals

For operations utilizing internal mechanical teams, we maintain an inventory of heavy-duty field support equipment available for immediate lease. Equipment can be dropped-shipped to project sites located outside the immediate Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

Please contact our logistics desk directly to check current fleet availability, timelines, and tier rates.

Certified EPA Reclamation Services

Perfect Cycle operates a fully certified, high-volume EPA reclamation facility in Dallas, Texas, serving mechanical contractors, academic institutions, hospital networks, mechanical distributors, and federal facilities nationwide. By maintaining a specialized, lean internal overhead structure, we pass substantial cost savings directly to our partners, offering some of the lowest processing fee structures in the industry.

Our Transparent Advantage: Fees Based on Clean NET Weight, Not Contaminated Gross Weight

Most competitive processing centers charge their primary processing fees based on the total GROSS weight of the contaminated material shipped to them—effectively charging you a premium to process waste oil and water content. Perfect Cycle calculates your processing fees strictly from the actual NET weight of clean, usable refrigerant yielded after separation. We allow up to 30% chemical contamination without applying auxiliary disposal penalties.

To prevent batch cross-contamination, our facility runs every single client shipment independently. This guarantee protects your inventory, ensuring that 100% of the gas you send to our facility is clean and returned directly to your asset roster. This stands in sharp contrast to high-volume processors that pool multiple customer runs into combined loads and use baseline estimates to distribute look-alike returns.

Standard Plant Processing Operations Include:

Low-pressure refrigerants are refilled into new, color-designated 100 lb capacity drums included directly within the baseline processing fee (55-gallon and 200 lb drum upgrades are available upon request). For high-pressure gases, clients can utilize internal bulk cylinders, which are fully evacuated and chemically cleaned on our line prior to refilling, or select popular 30 lb disposable cylinder profiles.
